Vitamin C Ester: Supercharged Brightening & Smoothing
A more potent, highly stable and less abrasive form of antioxidant powerhouse vitamin C, Vitamin C Ester gives the appearance of collagen-rich skin by smoothing, brightening and minimizing the look of discoloration over time. Unlike traditional vitamin C, Vitamin C Ester is fat-soluble and easily absorbable for maximum antioxidant benefits.
Ferulic Acid: Free Radical Skin Protection
A plant-based, super antioxidant that promotes the look of collagen-rich skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots by supporting the skin in fighting against free radical damage. Ferulic Acid is also known to stabilize vitamins C and E to enhance their properties for maximum skin benefits.
Vitamin E: Super Skin Nourishment
A hydrating, reparative antioxidant found in almonds and avocados visibly minimizes the look of discoloration for more even-looking skin over time. A unique chemical structure enables vitamin E to disperse within skin’s surface for visible, long-term dramatic results.

Disappointing
I didn't want to write a review until I had used the product for a couple weeks. I used it every evening and every other morning for two weeks. It felt nice going on and I did use moisturizer after applying. I was not happy with how it felt after it dried. I could literally feel it on my skin and I applied lightly. Also after 2 weeks I really don't see a difference in my skin at all. Very disappointed because I'm usually a huge fan of Perricone.

great serum
I received this product to try & then give an honest review. After using this product just a few days I noticed a dramatic improvement in my skin. My complexion was smoother & brighter. The serum has a light yet creamy consistency that literally glides on & is quickly absorbed into the skin leaving a smooth finish. While a tad expensive it is a worthwhile splurge & a product that I will definitely continue to use. Highly recommend.

worked for brown spots!
I've been using this for a little over a month. The first thing I noticed was the scent of the product. I didn't like it but, it disappears quickly...so I got used to it. One day last week, I looked at my brown spots and noticed they were really going away. I couldn't believe it! This product is helping, for sure. I've tried numerous products to clear up the brown/age spots and this is the first one to actually work. I do think my skin tone looks brighter as well. I'd recommend this serum, for sure. Just get used to the smell of it.

Perfect Skin in a bottle!
I have dry skin due to my thyroid problem,but this serum is a game changer. I love how the products sets on the skin giving it a nice lift. Unlike other Dr. Perricone products this serum has a refreshing citrus scent.The serum formula feels a little tacky but once I put it on my skin it feels amazing. After using this serum my skin I noticed less visible fine lines and wrinkles, hydrated skin,smooth texture,radiant skin. The serum also has Ferulic acid which is extremely helpful in fighting free radicals and it has the highest concentration of Vitamin C . This product has helped even out my skin texture and given my skin a radiant look. Unfortunately, I have not seen it minimize discoloration on small freckle size dark spot. I did notice it worked beautifully my neck. I absolutely loved the brown glass bottle looks so chic and gives it the original look. I have gotten so many compliments using this serum and I stopped using foundation. This product was a complementary gift from Influenster and I'm truly excited. I absolutely loved the results this product gave my skin. I feel younger and my skin looks so hydrated and glowing. The price point is perfect for this wonderful product

I'm being 100% honest here!
Okay y'all this is me being honest. This product is pricey!!!! I've been using it for about a month now and while I've seen some change in my skin it's not all positive. My skin seems healthier but this has come at a cost.......acne! I don't know if it's just because it's a new product and I have oily skin or what but at the beginning it caused me to breakout. I do breakout on my own just from having oily skin etc but this was a little much. I will say on the positive the product felt great on my skin, it smells wonderful, very clean and citrusy, it was fast to absorb in my skin and made me skin feel moisturizer and overall more healthy. I do feel like my skin overall looked brighter so that was a major plus. I don't think is a product I would invest in for the long haul because I just haven't seen the results to match the price tag. It's good but it's not great.

A Bit More Glow, But...
I'll start off by saying; I LOVE #PerriconeMd! It is Definitely 1 of my "Holy Grail"/Go-To Brands for Multiple Skincare needs. This #Brightening Serum has me a little conflicted, at this point. The packaging is great.. Very high quality & well-functioning. The tinted glass is also great for preserving the integrity of the product (Vitamin C component). It's not overly harsh.. Not as much so as some other Brightening/Vitamin C focused products I've used before. But; my Sensitive skin has experienced some temporary redness. So, I sometimes use once a day in lieu of the recommended two times daily. I can certainly say I've noticed more "Glow" to my complexion.. Still holding out hope for the fading of my stubborn sunspots. (Darned Tanning! Should have listened to Mom!!) Lastly, despite all I have done/tried; I cannot find a way to get this serum NOT to pill. So far, applying very lightly/sparingly seems to work best. Going to continue use.Perricone MD VCE CCC+ Ferulic Brightening Complex 20%

Good for Anti Aging
I received this product as a gift from Influenster to review. I have been using it for about 4 weeks now. I am 45 and my skin is in very good shape. My concerns are anti-aging and wrinkle prevention. After using for 4 weeks, I do not see any noticeable differences in my skin. I was hoping that this would eliminate the little hyper pigmentation that I have gotten the past few months due to breakouts from masks and stress. It may have faded it slightly, it is not gone. My skin is very hydrated and very bright. My skin is still looking good so the product has definitely maintained my bright and firm skin. I have no issues with the product except for the very strong smell. It takes a bit to get used to the scent. It's a decent product but it has not really knocked my socks off for the price. If this product fits your budget, I would give it a try. But if you do not have that kind of budget there are probably more mid range products to try.

Great product, nice scent
I love the initial light citrus scent. I use this product at night and it seems to be a bit sticky unless I apply it under a product with a little slip. Otherwise, my face sticks to my pillow. This is definitely a phloretin issue and not exclusive to this product. It also "balls up" if you run something like sunscreen on after it. Again, this is a phloretin issue in many C serums. I love how easy it is to apply and have definitely noticed a reduction in fine lines and increased elasticity on the backs of my hands and chest.

Trying Out Perricone MD Vitamin C Esther
Received a complimentary sample of this in my last VoxBox. Now that I'm in my mid-40's, I've been trying to pay better attention to my skincare. So this product came at the perfect time. I've been using this for a few weeks and starting to notice my skin being a bit brighter and definitely alleviating some of that dullness. Overall, it just gives more of a radiant glow. I haven't used it long enough to see if it helps with any fines lines just yet. One thing I am not a fan of, is the scent. It's not horrible, simply not my favorite. I was also concerned that this may leave my oily skin more "oily", but I found this to be a quick absorbing formula.

horrible smell!!
I was so excited to be chosen to review this product.... and I have given it at least 3 weeks. This was difficult to do because the smell is horrible to me!! It lingers for about 5 minutes too. It smells like dirty socks to me:(. I still mustered through and I see no difference at all in my skin. Unfortunately, this product will not be a purchase after this bottle.... honestly, I will not be continuing. This is one pricey fail for me!
